Behind every number is a story—like Indica, who raised her GPA from 2.3 to 3.5 to earn her passport, or Sep’Tisha Riley, who went from our first student to our first teacher.
This report is more than a recap. It’s a roadmap to a future where young people from under-resourced communities don’t just dream they lead, build, and thrive.
As we prepare to launch our first Kansas City cohort and continue building pathways for global learning, we invite you to read, reflect, and reimagine with us.
🌍 Together, we’re not just sending students out into the world we’re helping them shape it.
With gratitude,
The Show Me The World Project Team
